Connecting the Power Supply
The power supply on the Cisco 828 router and the SOHO 78 router has a light gray
connector and provides dying gasp functionality. The dying gasp feature sends an
alert to the router if the box shuts down. For example if there is a power problem
at the remote site, the router sends a message to the DLSAM indicated that the
router is going to be powered off.
To connect the power supply, follow the steps in Figure 2-5.
